African Grey Parrot Eggs

£150
  • Description

African grey parrots typically lay a clutch of two to four eggs, with some laying three to five eggs per brood. A single African grey can lay multiple clutches per year, but in the wild, they only breed once a year or every other year. If you find an egg, you should leave it with the bird for about a month to see if she abandons it. 

How many eggs do African Greys lay? 
  • Clutch size: 2-4 eggs
  • Brood size: 3-5 eggs
  • Mating: Eggs may be laid without mating due to hormonal imbalances.
What to do after the eggs are laid
  • Incubate: The female incubates the eggs for 26-30 days.
  • Leave them be: It's best to leave the eggs in the nest until the bird abandons them, as taking them away can encourage more laying. 
  • Calcium and protein: Ensure the bird receives calcium and protein supplements to replenish what's lost during egg-laying. 
  • Monitor: Watch for signs of egg-binding, which can be serious. 
  • Professional advice: Consult a vet if you are concerned about egg-binding or excessive egg-laying.
